Destruction is always inherently Chaotic. No matter what one uses it for. No matter how one does it. You use Chaos to destroy a building, and then use Order to restore the Balance by building something new.

Never speak about Chaos alone, or Order alone. They are intertwined in eternal conflict. The Balance is at stake.

Limiting Chaos effect by Order - you maintain balance. You Chaotically destroy the building, but thanks to Orderly made explosives, destruction doesn't go out of hand.

I realize that this philosophical system may be hard to fathom. Chaos may look like Order, or Order like Chaos. Just look at the deeds at the time they happen, and ignore reasons and consequences. Destroy == Chaos. Create == Order. Balance is achieved when Chaos ~ Order.

It's not hard to understand, it's just wrong. Period. Destruction is not chaos. It's a false equivalency. Destruction is the concept of damage to an object, system, or being. Nothing about that is inherently chaotic.

Everything about destruction is inherently chaotic. Even damage is inherently chaotic. Damaged system/object - has higher chance of malfunctions. It is more chaotic. Damage adds chaos into a system. Destruction turns system into "rubble" - that is pure chaos. It can be done in the name of order. But it is still chaotic act.

Is it chaotic for a surgeon to do a precision cut on someones skin to cut out a tumor? The actions behind the act determine if something is chaos or order.

You know a community is bad when moderators lock a thread because "...this isnt the place to talk about it either seeing as it will get trolled..."

Yes, for cutting skin, Yes, for cutting out tumor.

Did you mean the "goal" by "actions"? because "actions behind the act" - is nonsense. Actions are the act.
Well, no, goal doesn't determine the nature of actions. Goal determines the nature of the result.
1. "You can't make an omelet without breaking some eggs." "breaking eggs" is an act of Chaos. The resulting omelet is a thing of Order.
2. "The end justifies the means". You can say - "I saved ten people by killing one man!". Yeah, you saved ten, but still you killed one.

The easiest way to kill enemies like that is to push/kite them off the edge of the map

Thanks for that, good to know. It felt like our team was fighting Shepard himself, now I know how they feel. He killed everyone but me with us also using medi-gels lol.

The generalist looks outward; he looks for living principles, knowing full well that such principles change, that they develop. It is to the characteristics of change itself that the mentat-generalist must look. There can be no permanent catalogue of such change, no handbook or manual. You must look at it with as few preconceptions as possible, asking yourself, "Now what is this thing doing?"-Children of Dune

Forgot to pause music, and youtube somehow detected it under the game sound rofl, also doubled the video for some reason managed to fix the doubling, still no sound due to background lol, youtube is magical.
WTB dedicated servers ;__;

that is why i dont use equipment before ive seen if i join a lobby. Hate lag!

The wave after that was a zone-upload one...
I would get in the zone for a good 20-30 seconds then warp halfway across the map, the game would even count the upload time.
Was invincible though lol, would just get back up whenever I randomly fell down

Its funny when u run halfway across the map and then a banshee picks you up right where u started running from :P

So... their reasoning behind it being Leviathan and not Protheans is that a spear is mentioned...
And I though no more straws could be grasped.
The spheres are also made of metal (not strange ethereal shit), shrink down and didn't turn people into crazies.
Seeing how there's a Prothean research station on Mars, it seems more likely than Leviathan doing... what exactly.
